Tidal volume is typically measured using a spirometer during respiration. It represents the amount of air that moves in and out of the lungs during normal breathing. The tidal volume can be calculated by taking a deep breath in and then breathing out normally, with the difference in lung volume representing the tidal volume.

Tidal zones are affected by the regular rise and fall of tides, while non-tidal zones do not experience this phenomenon. Tidal zones have distinctive marine life adapted to tidal fluctuations, while non-tidal zones have a more stable environment. Tidal zones may have higher biodiversity due to the constant mixing of nutrients and oxygen brought by the tides.
A spring tide has the greatest tidal range. A neap tide has a smaller tidal range.
The tidal current in the Orkneys is known as the "Atlantic Orkney Tidal Stream."

A tidal fence is a series of underwater turbines placed in a line to capture energy from tidal currents, whereas a tidal barrage is a dam-like structure built across a tidal estuary or bay to capture energy from the rise and fall of tides. Tidal fences are typically smaller in scale and placed in open water, while tidal barrages involve impounding water in a basin behind the structure.
